Three questions to PM Raila on his visit to Stockholm

Posted on October 22, 2009 by

Following my previous open letter to Prime Minister of Kenya Raila Odinga, I now want to specifically put across three  basic questions which I will ask the Premier in our Friday meeting in Stockholm. I would expect that the Hon.

Odinga will have read my Open letter to him and of course he is acquainted with the Maa indigenous people’s plight in Kenya. I am sure, that the Prime Minister is not too busy for us, because that is why he is on this tour, to establish a new “economic road for Kenya” and in deed establish a modern equal and fair Kenya.

The Prime Minister’s office is meant to facilitate the slow and bureaucratic government to implement people’s friendly policies and improve the living standard of all Kenyans.

My Names are Saidimu Ole Ngais and I am a political Science Student at Stockholm University.

Below are my questions:

  1. What is your answer to the view that the extra judicial killings that have been going on since February up to date, in Samburu and Laikipia areas resembles ethnic cleansing, indeed the early age of genocide against the Samburu people?
  2. In the name of justice and reconciliation among ethnic groups in Kenya, explain the reasons why Kenya ratified the ILO convention number 169 on indigenous and tribal people but reserves itself in adapting the convention?
  3. Do you think the nation can reconcile while injustice and historical crimes are not rectified or even acknowledged?

Thank you very much PM Raila Odinga and once again, welcome to Scandinavia, the second home of about 3000 Diaspora Kenyans. Remember, so many electorates are looking upon you! They gave votes to you I know it! And they are still proud of you but very scared of their future! They said and we told them, you are the answer!

Saidimu Ole Ngais.
